having grown up in the mountains on the east coast, I'm with BK and Dan. the collapse of modern society will simply be viewed by me as another fun challenge.
Surely you don't really mean that? I'm going to guess you don't have a family with young children, own a business or have ever been to a 3rd world nation. Modern society 'collapsing' will be horrific to a degree we can't truly imagine. Robbing, raping, pillaging, looting and murder on massive scale. Grandma dying pretty quickly without her meds is bad enough, but having millions starving and savaging one another to eke out existence isn't fun or challenging. It's a horror movie plot- and I hope that's where it stays. Doesn't mean you shouldn't make reasonable preparations, that is common sense. But wanting it to happen strikes me as poorly reasoned.
Not to be a downer- I fantasize about mowing down zombies with a belt-fed as much as the next gun nut....but I am confident that any societal collapse will be much more grim then anyone can accurately project.
